WORLDSCHOOL HUB

This is our why...

When you heal one, you heal all. The focus is on the family; the children are immersed and learning, the parents are able to work or embark on their own learning or healing journey. When the family unit is well, we are all well. 

We live in Tanzania and want to share our lives with you! Marissa is an educator with over 15 years of experience teaching mathematics and yoga to youth. William is from Tanzania and loves sharing his culture with others. Together we have curated a 3 - 4 week learning experience for the whole family. We are not using any commercialized experiences or tour operators, in the hopes of staying as close to nature and as close to authentic and natural as possible. We also aim to make this experience affordable for a family to travel here and stay for an extended period of time without breaking the bank ;-) 

"We are consciously curating the experience that we would want for our family; time in nature, learning from different cultures, wellness and healing for the whole family."
